Hi there!
I am new to the ponding community, but installed a rather sizeable pond/waterfall in my backyard this spring. It is complete with water plants and four happy Koi and 1 orphaned Goldfish from a friend.
Everything has been going great, and we have been enjoying our new water feature immensely. However, here's the issue at hand:
Today, we noticed about 75-100 random small, dark fish, that appear Minnow-like! We are shocked as to where they might have come from? (ie. Birds perhaps?)
Any ideas? Our pond has not been visited by any ducks or geese that may have had eggs on their feet from the other wild ponds in the area, so we are at a loss.
Thanks for any ideas you might want to throw out there!
